was free buying by city and outside millers.
The 29l cars received since Saturday filled
up the sample tables, and sellers were having
some trouble in obtaining Saturdays prices.

first, prices were shade lower. Minneapolis
stock increased 100000 bu the past week, St
Paul 900 and Duluth decreased 345, 416
bu, Shipments since Saturday were 104
cars, Duluth reported $50 on track. Follow

Flour-The Market Record says: While
there is little quiet muttering among sellers
and manufacturers of winter wheat fours,
spring wheat millers find ready sale for
their productions at steady prices. The bulge
in wheat started last week has not yet taken
on that certainty of permanent strength that
seems to warrant millers in expecting ma
terial advances. There have been a good
many sales of patents for delivery at New
an outside figure obtainable to-day. 1t is
true that eastern buyers are, in some in
stances figuring for a decline but there are
no indications, that it will come if the wheat
markets are reasonably well sustained
Bran and Shorts-The bran market re-
manned steady at SlG.2o@ L .25 shorts quiet
at S11. 25@l12. 80.
Corn-Quiet at 3S@39 O. t.
Oats-The late receipts have been large, the
bulk of the stock going into store at 210l23c
for fair to good mixed The low prices have
attracted attention from outside consuming
points, and there are inquiries coming here
from several for figures. Some of these will
take supplies at fully outside quotations
Barley-This grain remains dull and hard
to sell, excepting the quality is high grade, or
enough so to command 50@53c.
Flax seed steady at 81. O2@1 02I2; Chicago
$1.OS@1 oslo.
Feed holds up well. considering the weak
ness of some of the grain that compose it.
Sales at S14.50GG15 o. t.; S15@I15.5O f. o . b.
Hay remains flat, but receipts are dropping.
Sales at S70SI2 for wild. Timothy nominal,
50 above wild.
